What about when the police show up because some highly illegal content was traced to your IP address? Will they believe that you were the unwitting victim of a rogue proxy server running on your streaming stick? Would you have even been aware of that possibility?

There's also always the flip side: When the police shows up because of your illegal acitivities, you have a rogue proxy server running. All bought in good faith of course.

Not legal advice.

(It would surprise me greatly if we as a society let these gadgets be sold openly from here on.)

That shows the problem or trying to link an IP address to an individual.

Believe it or not, that is what happens when the police show up to the house of a primary school teacher. They will think they have the wrong address. Even US police.

The cybercrime raids happen when they run into someone who looks like a hacker and has a lot of computers.
